These species are: Weber's <br /> monkey flower, northern blackberry, pale moonwort, clustered (aka: purple) lady's <br /> slipper, and round-leaf sundew. All are listed as "Sensitive" by the USFS. The <br /> tabularized list of PETS is included in the USFS EA. <br /> The Endangered Species Act (1973), as amended, requires all federal agencies to <br /> undertake programs for the conservation of threatened and endangered species, and <br /> prohibits those agencies from funding or conducting any action that would jeopardize a <br /> listed species or its 'critical habitat' as defined in the Act. A formal Biological <br /> Assessment/Evaluation of proposed and listed species known, suspected, likely to <br /> occur, or with suitable habitat in the upper Williams Fork River valley was conducted by <br /> the USFS in coordination with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as part of the NEPA <br /> process. In addition to federally proposed and listed species, the assessment included <br /> all other species on the PETS list. <br />
